The eBook contains the following:
- 60 Black Women in Horror (the list)
- Interview with Linda Addison
- Interview with Darlene Black
- Interview with Jemiah Jefferson
- Interview with Nnedi Okorafor
- Interview with A.L. Peck
- Interview with Sumiko Saulson
- Interview with L. Marie Wood
Plus, additional bonus materials that will not appear in the print edition.
- Short Story by Crystal Connor, “Amber’s New Friend”
- Short Story by Sumiko Saulson, “The Last”
- Essay by David Watson, “On L.A. Banks and Octavia Butler”
